Q: My question is related to Salaah and flying by air.
Sometime ago we flew from Australia to Canada. We set out at around 7.00 am on Tuesday, and we reached at around 7.15 am Tuesday, on the same date. The flight was 17 hours, and in this time we didn't read any Salaah. In fact, the next Salaah we read was Dhuhr almost 24 hours later. Is this correct?
However, when we were returning to Australia, we lost a day, so basically a whole day's worth of Salaah became qadha. We jumped a whole day, or we lost a whole day, when we were crossing the international date line. How does this work? How do we calculate Salaah in these situations? Were we supposed to read any Salaah on the way to Canada keeping in mind the Hadith about after Dajjaal comes one day will be equal to a year, and so forth. Hence Salaah would have been calculated according to its normal time, as Nabi Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Salam had advised his Sahaabah?
Q: I’ve noticed that in fard wudu, only a quarter of your head needs to me washed. And when awrah is shown during salah, then only if it is under a quarter, the salah is deemed valid.
Today a little strand of my hair was showing during salah. I’d like to know how to measure a quarter of my head.
Q: A few men performing jamaat salaah in the masjid or individual salaah at home where there's small lizard's faeces scattered around. It got smeared on their palms, knees, etc. with or without their knowledge. Will their salaah be valid? Is the faeces of small lizard's clean or unclean?
Q: I performed the 1st rakaat of a salaah individually with an unclean (impure) trouser but I realized this during the 2nd rakaat. What do I have to do to correct the salaah ?
Q: I mistakenly stood up after the last sajdah of the last rakaat of salaah. How should I proceed with the salaah to make it valid?
Q: If while praying two rakaats salaah, after sujood of the two rakaats, one forgets he has completed one or two rakaats and therefore stands up with the intention of praying one more rakaat and doing sajda sahaw but on standing he remembers accuratley that he in fact has completed two rakaats.
1. In this situation, while he has stood up with or has already started reciting Surah Fatiha, is it permissible to go to tashahhud or one should complete four rakaats?
2. Would sajdah sahaw be needed after completing four rakkats?
3. Or salah will not be valid and one must repeat it, if for example he was praying two rakaat sunnat muakkadah of Fajr or two rakaats Fardh of Fajr because he has prayed four rakkats instead of two?
Q: I got colostomy bag installed on my stomach due to cancer 2 years ago. As I have no control of my stool, it passes away in the bag without any signs or senses. How can I perform salaah as najaasat is with me almost 24 hours a day. Also, is it compulsory for me to perform sunnah salaah and Nawafil etc.?
Q: Is it permissable to travel with your mother's mahram whilst your mother is present? I don't have a mahram who can take me to go and see my sick nani. So is it permissable if I travel with my mother and my brother in law and his wife (which is my sister)? Pardah will be observed as well.
Q: I was reciting Surah Faatihah in place of Attahiyyaat. I realized at the time when I was going to lift my index finger. I stopped Surah Faatihah then recited Attahiyyaat and ending with sajdah sahw or I completed Surah Faatihah and ending with Salaam only. Will my salaah be valid? If not, kindly inform me as how do I correct such an error in salaah?
